CaIZada,s Case.

The case OF Calzada, the Mexican
who murdered his wife in such bru-
tai manner on Alameda street, was
continued until January "a, 1888. The
continuance was granted on motion
by DEFENDANTS attorney, who stated
that they were unable to secure the
evidence of an aunt of the defendant,
by whom they could establish his in
sanity. They claim to be able to
prove by this witness, who resides in
Sonora, Mexico, that insanity is
hereditary and that the defendant has
at diverse times had fits which are in
durable. In order that the defense
might have sufficient time to secure
this evidence, the Court granted the
motion.

Accidentally Drowned.

The inquest ON the body of Geo
Hubbard was held on Friday night by
Coroner Meredith at San Pedro. The
evidence given by the witnesses was
to the effect that the deceased had
been drinking the night previous, and
had, on the following morning, been
found floating in the creek. r. j.
Beam said he knew the deceased by
the name of "Crawfish" George. The
Doctors examination showed no
marks of violence on the body. and
that he was man of 60 years of age
Mr.. James Connors and Chas. Powers
also testified to the identity of the
man, and the jury returned the ipl-
lowing decision, viz: THAT the de-
ceased Geo. Hubbard came to his
death by drowning, and we believe
said drowning to have been accidental.

A Few Words for the Temper
ance Ticket.


The ladies of the w. c. 7. U. have
been unable to secure proper places in
which to serve sandwiches and coffee
on election day, consequently they
have been obliged to give up that part
Of their project. Nevertheless, they
win be out in force, pleading against
the saloon interests on behalf of the
homes of Los Angeles.
The ticket, which all friends of tenn
perance, whether Prohibitionists
Democrats or Republicans, are urged
to support, is very strong one, COM
prising the names OF men well-known
FOR intelligence, business ability and
sterling moral qualities. They are
we'll fitted to legislate, not only upon
upon the temperance question, but
also upon all subjects connected with
the welfare of the city.
Mrs. Mary E. Garbutt, one of the
candidates for member of the School
Board, is the only lady on any ticket
at this election. She is not by
any means stranger among us, hav-
ing been as a teacher identified with
the educational interests of this city
for several years. She was formerly
engaged in the same work at Denver
Colo. Her classes have been repeat
eddy brought before the County Insti-
tute as models for the imitation OF
other teachers, and she is, in all re-
spects, we'll fitted to aid in the work
10 well done by Mrs. Averill and hel
associates during the past year.
Surely it is not asking too much
chat two out of the five persons who
constitute our Board OF Education
should be women experienced in the
teachers ant, and having sufficien
leisure to inspect personally the work
ings OF our schools. A. T. Nj.

The Prussian Spy Mania.

According to private information
which has been received here, tho
"Prussian spy" mania has broken out
to an alarming extent in Algeria. 1t
is productive of great annoyance to
English visitors. whom the too sus-
picious French officials are subjecting
to surveillance and other annoyances
on the ground that they are Germans
in disguise. The possession by chill
dren of old caricatures, such as the
picture of zouave being thrashed by
a Prussian, is regarded as proof posi-
tive that their parents are spies. Some
times French zeal leads to somewhat
ludicrous results. Thus short time
ago young gentleman was charged
with having been present on the Ger
man side on the field of Sedan, yet it
was proved that he was only sixteen
years of age. Hitherto the tact of the
English consular officials has prevented
any serious d.fficulty.-London Cor.

Durability Of Raft Timber.

Raft timber that has been fioated
down rivers has been ascertained to be
no longer liable to he attack of dry
rot. So much SO is this said to be the
case that in Alsace it is customary to
specify that only raft timber shall be
employed. The water slowly dissolves
out the albumen and salts, and thus de-
prives the fungus of the nutriment
needful for its development. AFrench
Investigator, we are told, has found by
experiment that. whereas fresh sawdust
when buried ro.s away in few years,

soaked some time in water, and has

similar circumstances wholly un-
changed and only slightly tinged on the
